I thought the Filopinos were Islanders and not Asian in the Niggardly sense of the word (Only Mainlanders are Asians)

Niggardly is a real word that does not mean Black people. Look it up.

Hmm true... How about Asian/Pacific Islander? Hmm i guess since most papers containing like Ex. African American, Asian, Pacific Islander, etc. I thnk you are right but it kinda partly Asian still. Plus SpellFilipino right

Ah thanks for the insight. Something new learned for the day

I think you can say.. not mainlanders yea. If you are referring to the main land connected to Europe. But that makes the Indonesians, Japanese, Taiwanese, Singaporeans and half of Malaysians islanders too.

In East Asia though, we only use the term "mainland" for the Chinese. As in mainland Chinese, coming from mainland China, as opposed to other Chinese everywhere else.

O_o i wouldnt say vietnam was colonized by the french. more like used for economical reasons.. but then again they never really were in vietnam just had control for a while until they were kicked out o___O

Yes, they are Asian. Wow... I never noticed that they had their own boxes on tests... o-o But don't you guys feel special that you have your own boxes? xD I would be, if there was a separate box for Chinese. xD I would be like wow... we must be really special to have our own boxes. But, I think that the people or company does know that Filipinos are Asian. They just think that Filipinos are just too cool . xD
